Sheriff s Department and the Citizens on Patrol Services (COPS) program.
The primary mission of Rancho Mirage public safety is to protect the lives and property of the citizens of
the City, to preserve the public peace and to apprehend those who violate the law. The City contracts with
the Riverside County Sheriff's Department for these services
Current patrol staffing consists of three deputies on day shift (7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m,) Monday through
Sunday. Three deputies are on evening shift (3:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m.) and two deputies are on graveyard
shift (10:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m.) Monday through Sunday. This is the equivalent of 80 hours per day of patrol
time or 29,200 hours per year.
In addition to the 80 hours of daily patrol time, the City also contracts for two motorcycle deputies for
traffic enforcement. Rancho Mirage was the first city in the Coachella Valley served by the Sheriff's
Department to employ motorcycles for traffic enforcement and commenced that program in FY 1996-97
with State grant funds.
Three additional deputies constitute our Burglary Suppression Unit (BSU). Their goal is to reduce
burglaries and thefts in Rancho Mirage. They work in cooperation with Indian Wells' BSU, Palm Desert's
Target Team, BSU in the unincorporated area and La Quinta's Special Enforcement Team.
During FY 1999-00, the City began utilizing the services of one Community Service Officer (CSO) to
perform two basic functions. First, to transport prisoners to County j ail in Indio in lieu of a deputy doing so.
Second, to assist the BSU by providing additional patrol to reduce burglaries and theft -Rancho Mirage's
most frequent serious crimes. A second and third CSO were added in FYs 2001-02 and 2002-03 to
primarily provide crime prevention patrol and crime prevention training to our residents and businesses.
Two CSOs are budgeted in the General Fund; the third CSO is budgeted in the COPS Fund (Citizens
Option for Public Safety) which is funded by State grant revenue restricted to law enforcement purposes.
Planned again for both FYs 2005-06 and 2006-07 is the bicycle patrol in the area of The River and at
Costco/Home Depot. The goal is the deter auto burglaries, thefts and purse snatches at these two locations.
They commence the Friday after Thanksgiving Day and continue Friday through Sunday each week to the
day before Christmas. A total of four deputies working ten-hour shifts are involved for a total of 560
hours - half at The River and nearby and half at Costco/Home Depot.
.~
The cost of one half of the Costco/Home Depot patrol is incurred by Palm Desert. As a result, 420 hours are
paid by Rancho Mirage and 140 by Palm Desert. The 420 hours for Rancho Mirage constitutes 1.44% of
the 29,200 budgeted annual patrol hours and can be absorbed within the budget as a result of patrol hours
not provided due to sick and vacation leave.
Rancho Mirage continues to experience increasing burglaries and thefts. During 2001, burglaries, felony
thefts and auto thefts totaled 403; during 2002 that number rose 28% to 517; during 2003 that number rose
147
14.5% to 592 and. during 2004 increased 2b.5% to 749. Since 2001, these three cafe ories have increased
almos ° g
t 86 /0.
Increasing numbers of property crimes are an ongoing problem in Rancho Mira a due to the u scale nature
g p
of the. community with its continuing residential growth-.,and the demographics of surrounding cities and
unincorporated- areas.
The Sheriff s Department has requested that the City budget for 40 hours er month- for a total of 480 hours
p
of additional patrol, ,time. These additional hours would primarily be to attack specific crime problems and
assist. BSU by standing by in .the area of surveillances and making vehicle- stops of suspects or sus icious
p
vehicles as requested by BSU, The overtime rate is approximately $50 per hour or a total of $24,000.
The FY 2006-07 budget also.includes the addition of two CSOs consistent with the Ten Year Pro'ection's
01 fi ~
g a o ncreasmg gradually the number of CSOs to provide additional cnme prevention patrol. Only eight
months of .cost. are budgeted due to the time.. needed for recruitment..and hiring. The projected cost is
approximately $102,200 for .eight months,.
The Sheriffs s Department is requesting to replace the two motorcycles for ,traffic enforcement. First
replaced in FY 2001-02, by mid-March 2005 the mileage on the two was 45,420 and 48,500, The Sheriff s
Department's practice is to replace at 50,000 miles for motorcycles and 100,000 for- patrol .cars.. The cost
estimate provided by the Sheriff s Department is $60,100..
Lastly, the $100,000 annually received by-the City from the State. (COPS. Fund 102) for law enforcement
purposes is no longer sufficient to pay all costs previously charged to the COPS Fund. As a result, the
General Fund is now budgeting f®r the balance of .these costs: $10,700 in F~' 2005-06 and $42,400 in FY
2006-07. Details maybe found in .the subsequent Budget Highlights for these two FYs.
Citizens on Patrol Services, (COPS) was formed in 1993. by the City and is .made up of volunteers .who serve
as additional "eyes and ears" for the Sheriff s Department as they patrol City streets on a daily basis. They
assist in the reduction of crime activities by providing high visibility, direct communications .and random
daily patrols. They are ambassadors of the City and provide door checks- of business establishments and
va .cation home checks. They are trained by the . Riverside County Sheriffs Department in
nonconfrontational methods, various aspects of police surveillance, reporting procedures, CPR, first aid and
emergency preparedness.
The.. City-wide COPS Program is equipped with .communications equipment and a City vehicle. Each
volunteer is issued a uniform, safety equipment and a badge. As a result, approximately-1,000 volunteer
hours are provided monthly. from approximately 45 volunteers. For FY 2005-06 and 2006-07 the City-wide
COPS Program has a per year budget of $19,500.
The Mission Hills COPS Program is. also being developed and .funded by the City. It is modeled after the.
City-wide COPS Program but is comprised of Mission Hills residents who patrol Mission Hills Country
Club. and nearby HOAs. The program now has 25 Mission Hills residents in the program. A substantial,
recruitment process took place. The Mission Hills COPS Program's budget for FY 2005-06 and FY 2006-
.07. will be $19,500 for. each. year, the same as for the. City-wide COPS program.

FUND 102 GENERAL FUND
PROGRAM COPS (CITIZENS OPTION FOR PUBLIC SAFETY)
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
The State began distributing $100 million per year to local government on a statewide basis in FY 1996-
97. This funding, also known as COPS (Citizens Option for Public Safety) funding, is restricted to law
enforcement purposes. The City established the COPS Fund at that time.
Prior to FY 2000-01, the City annually received approximately $24,000 that had been used to furnish
equipment requested by the Sheriff's Department. In FY 2000-01, the State increased funding to $121.3
million on a statewide basis and Rancho Mirage's share increased to $100,000. Since that time, our annual
funding has remained at that amount.
In January 2001, the City Council approved the Cove Commission's recommendation to approve funding
for a crime analyst and an office assistant to be assigned to the Sheriff's Department's Palm Desert station.
As part of the FY 2001-02 Budget, the City Council also approved the hiring of a second Community
Service Officer (CSO) whose primary purpose is crime prevention patrol and training to Rancho Mirage
businesses and residents.
At this time, there is no indication that funding will be discontinued due to the State's financial problems.
If funding from the State is discontinued, either the City's General Fund would have to absorb costs that
are currently recorded in this Fund or COPS Fund activities would have to be discontinued. Because
public safety is a high priority to the State, it is assumed for budget purposes that the COPS Funds will
continue to receive $100,000 per year from the State.
FY 2003-04 ACCOMPLISHMENTS
• The CSO has actively provided crime prevention training and patrol during the entire year.
The 3-deputy Burglary Suppression Unit continued to use rental vehicles to conduct surveillances of
criminal suspects.
FY 2004-OS ACCOMPLISHMENTS

.:Cove Crime Analyst and Office Assistant. However, the grant is not sufficient to pay -for vehicle
rental by the Sheriff's Burglary. Suppression Unit.. Use of rental vehicles is an essential tool to conduct
